More of the endless supply of Cellphone Pics


I am doing so many 'random cell pics' because Tom (roomie) promised me we'd be getting our computer on Saturday. Well, he said he wouldn't get it up & running asap but that we'd atleast get it. But still, I wanted to get "rid" of these because I had so many in my phone that it was time for 'em to get uploaded. So there will be atleast 2 or 3 more posts to come soon. As for the picture above, I'd really like to know who's responsible for killing society, aren't you?


This spider lives in my rear view window. I swear I've had spider live there for years (atleast 10 years or so)...during the summer months. I'd like to think it's the same spider but I doubt that!



Taking a pic of him from inside my car...but facing the car. Sound confusing? Yeah, it was confusing to take this kinda pic. I couldn't really see what I was doing.



Waiting at the Meijer deli is sooooo depressing. There's not even a lot of people there but I probably waited 20 minutes for my number to be called. Ugh, I need to start bringing reading material when I go over there.


Bibi thinking she's going to get some of my dinner. That cute doesn't fool me! :) This is my wallpaper on my phone right now. :)




The boys playing Beatles RockBand (PS3). I couldn't finish the game. Well, not when Mike wanted to. He's a weirdo and said "We need to play NOW or we won't get the trophy." It's a virtual trophy I'm thinking. And I just sang 15 songs. I needed a break but he gets a little hardcore. So Tom picked up the drums (I sang...and I never play the instruments cuz I suck) and they finished the game...and got the trophy. I would definitely rent this again. Lots of fun!


So I own a few Beatles records...yes vinyl. Most are very old...HELP is the only one I bought brand new. I used to have this thing for 'em (so did my best friend in high school)...and we watched all their films and just couldn't get enough of 'em. So my memory was pretty good when it came to singing a lot of the songs. Oh, I put the vinyl out for 2 reasons: One to give us good luck...Two to add some Beatles love. Awwww. :)




At the Main Art Theatre when Labyrinth was playing at Midnight. This area used to have a payphone but all it is now is a small little place surrounded by mirrors. Hmm...interesting.





My friends (Adam, to the left, Brian, far right) outside the show. We got there early and there was lots of people inside, not to mention it being warm. So we stepped outside before showtime.



I really do have some artistic friends. A friend of mine designed all the posters for the Midnight Movies this year. And he's a pretty awesome artist. Always has been since I first met him in junior high...so it's no surprise art/graphic design is something he is going into. So I asked him for this poster on the door and he said I could order one at the front desk.
I also really REALLY liked his Spirited Away poster, so I ordered that one too. They were only $2 each, not bad. And I bought frames for 'em because I don't want to put holes through 'em to hang up...they are just too nice for that. I might go see The Lost Boys at Midnight next week and might get the Midnight Movie poster for that one too. It's really cool. They are all cool but I must limit myself!



Outside the Main Art Theatre. I own this poster. It's on one of our walls in the house. Love this image lots...so much detail, love it!!!



Some Gloomy Bear merch is at Hot Topic. Not sure if they're getting in more. They have a couple necklaces (like the one pictured above), earrings, and bracelets. I HAD to get the necklace above...it's awesome. And I'm showing my Gloomy love. Cuz I just love him to death!



Thought this was a HK Halloween shirt. But no. Think about it. Yeah, Michael Jackson has even taken over Hello Kitty. I'm not cool with that. :( But the shirt is cool...just not why the shirt exists to begin with. I feel bad about his death but the merch is just out of control here in the US. It's nuts!!!



Weird things to add to your smoothie drink if you ask me. Like Bee Pollen, Wheat Grass, Spirulina, or Stripper...which I have no clue what those last 2 things are. Odd. Hm.



The COOLEST Hello Kitty Halloween Stickers I've seen yet. Love 'em love 'em love 'em!!!



Bibi likes Lil' Lambi and Lil' Lambi like people or animals too so it works out. Again, Bibi never looks too thrilled when I take pics of her relaxing.
Enjoy your day friends and chat with you soon.~

Memorial Day Sales, Oh My!

Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone.
And with that comes...
SALES!!!
And you know me, I LOVE a good sale or 2.
You might say "Eve oh Eve, you do love to spend $$$,
but...
this picture is proof to how cheap I really am.
I was at Target & just wanted a pic of me...
wearing the 'America/Uncle Sam' hat.

I didn't want to pay the $1 for it.
Yeah, I'm cheaper than you think.
Wait, that didn't sound right...;}
Anyways...here's my sales adventures.

This is a pic of MY Hot Topic, wooo hoo cuz...
Hot Topic had their half off the half off sale this weekend...
& I always hit it up then
.
Some things I couldn't pass up include:

An Alice shirt...and you know...
there's no question about whether or not to get it!

Purrrrple, is one of my colors.
And so is black...
And I love the skeleton image...
so Voila, I got this shirt.
It's a bit low cut for me...
so I'll be tank topping it under.

One of the best deals EVER.
Skelly animals totes for 4.99!!!
Isn't that sweet?
And I LOVE the bat skelly animal.
I know it's Skeleanimal, right?...
just like callin' em that.

The only thing at Hot Topic that I paid full price for.
A very creepy & cool Day of the Dead patch.
Now where to put it...
probably on a tote bag.

And BORDERS bookstore...
was extremely awesome for the holiday weekend too.
They had great sales on their clearance books...
aka: bargain books.

And they were buy one get one free...
and they were ALREADY very inexpensive.
I paid a total of $10.60 for all the books/CD's below.

I mean look at the cover...
it was a must-have.
Yeah yeah yeah,
don't judge a book by its cover but...
c'mon, Frankenstein & Cake...
how can you go wrong?!?
^_^

I got French Milk because it's a girl & her mother's 6 week travels to France. It looks really interesting because it's documented ALL in photos the girl took (she wrote/documented the experience)...and cool illustrations of things they did. Why is it called French Milk? The girl, Lucy, fell in love with France's milk while she visited there. I guess it's pretty yummy.

Kittenwar Postcards are cute...and are mainly for my cat-loving-friends (and YOU know who you are). Be expecting some from me in the mail or in person soon.

Carrie (in the right corner) is of course the Stephen King book...
but on CD's (7 of 'em, unabridged).
Yikes, I can't imagine how many hours that is but I'm sure it'll be awesome.
And to top it off it's read by Sissy Spacek.
How cool is that?
I read Carrie but a long time ago...
and I remember it being quite good.
So when I saw this book on CD's I thought hmmm....

Let me break it down cuz I think it's pretty sweet.
It normal retail price was 39.99...
& it was on sale for 5.99...
but since they were BOGO free...
it was only 3.00 + tax.
Major SCORE!!!
AKA: Score of the week...or maybe the whole month!
I hope it don't scare me too much though.
I can be a scaredy cat sometimes.


SOOO, all in all a great sales weekend.
And it isn't over...but I'm not going back out...
Well, a BIG maybe on Michaels (craft store) on Monday.

Some people often say...
I have some type of 'skill' with my shopping...
or that I'm a shopaholic (cough cough, Diane)...;}
But I don't see it either way.
I don't scope out stores for days & days....
waiting to see what'll get marked down.
Or planning/calculating things...that'd be a lot of work!
And I don't spend my entire day in the mall...
or at TARGET (my fave store as you know).
And ugh, you already know how I feel about shopping for...
dressy clothes/shirts other than t-shirts/pants/shoes shopping and grocery shopping,

but if not, I'll refresh your memory...
I hate it!

I mean a girl's got to eat, sleep, & blog...
at some time!

^_^

I just keep my eye out for certain sales...
from time to time...
especially the clearance sales.
Those are the BEST.
And I get some good selection sometimes...
and sometimes I don't.
Typically my local Hot Topic is kinda sucky...
for their 1/2 off sales, but I really lucked out this time around.
And BORDERS was kinda luck too.
I hadn't been there in a while...
and low & behold I found this great sale,
that actually had some good stuff.


So this was my BIG clearance splurge of the month.
And everything will be put to good use,
and that's all that matters, right?!!

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend.
I'm off to Meijer in a sec for...
BIG SALES!
Just kidding...
I gotta grocery shop.
It shouldn't be busy cuz it's late.

I prefer going later...

not a lot of long lines & usually not a million peeps down the aisles.
I'm quite the power shopper at the grocery store cuz I just wanna get the heck out of there asap. Unless I get sidetracked by something curious.
And yes you are right Diane, Meijer does have a BIG ol' selection of wines/beer/etc....
but Meijer is SO huge so no wonder, right??!


OK, adios for now amigos!~

Hello Kitty Jewelry, Oh My!




i went to hot topic tonight to see if mike's shirt (that he ordered & would come to the store), was in or coming soon. well, it was a good thing i went because a girl i talk to, the manager there, said the e-mail she sent didn't go through. and he was getting anxious about getting his new metal gear shirt...so i was going to kohls anyways (in the mall). & that's why i stopped in HT for a sec. but a sec turned into over a half hour. mainly because i decided to go ahead & order the PARADE hk & mad barbarians shirt, and now that will probably arrive at my HT when his does. so again, good thing i went so i could order the one i REALLY wanted. i was debating if i should get parade or the cloud one on their website. i wasn't going to order off the site...because it's cool that HT will let you order from their warehouse.

PLUS, i was thinking about getting a couple pieces of HK jewelry & they happened to be on sale. Yay! so i had to decide what i wanted to get because i didn't want to spend more than $20, and i wanted these 3 particular things for sure. and yay, i ended up getting all 3 for under $20. it's good to have friends in high places, ha. no but the manager really gave me a good deal...without breaking too many rules.;} and (fellow HK fans) she said a new hk & mad barbarians hoodie will be coming out soon. probably will cost a lot, but maybe i'd get it when it goes to clearance. :}
